Xabi Alonso reacts after Cologne's leveller on Saturday.
Cologne became
the first team to deny Bayern Munich victory in the Bundesliga this
season as they picked up a deserved 1-1 draw at the Allianz Arena.
Joshua
Kimmich gave Bayern the lead five minutes before the end of a first half which
the hosts dominated.
It
was a different story in the second half, though, with Anthony Modeste bringing
Cologne level, and they had the record champions on the ropes but failed to
land a winning punch despite going close late on.
The
result means both clubs remain unbeaten this season, although Carlo Ancelotti's
Bayern left the field for the first time in the league this season without all
three points following a previous run of five straight wins.
Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez
scored to seal Bayer
Leverkusen's 2-0 home win over Borussia Dortmund.
Ahmed
Mehmedi opened the scoring after just 10 minutes, heading in Hakan Calhanoglu's
cross following a corner, and Hernandez added his fifth goal in the past three
games in the 79th minute by turning in another Calhanoglu cross from close
range.
Pierre-Emerick
Aubameyang thought he'd pulled a goal back with three minutes to play, but it
was ruled out for outside.
Dortmund
dropped into third place, four points behind leaders Bayern and one back of Hertha Berlin, who earned a 2-0 win at home over Hamburg to spoil Markus Gisdol's
first game in charge.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Dortmund were poor on Saturday, deservedly losing at Leverkusen.
